| The Carkarass Shield |
| Required: Learning Shield Working quest. |
| → Go to Veja Pontor |
| YOU: Hello Veja, got a job for me? |
| Veja: Wait. |
| -Veja keeps reading a big book, the frown on her forehead growing bigger over time.- |
| Veja: This makes no sense…I've never heard of anyone getting such a thing. |
| -Veja looks up.- |
| Veja: Oh, you're still there. |
| Veja: Sorry, you would like to help me, you say? |
| YOU: Of course, that's why I asked. |
| Veja: Good, good… |
| -Veja keeps a hand on the book and studies YOU.- |
| Veja: I've got an important job. |
| Veja: Would you like, thousands of Tria, rivers of Tria? |
| -Veja seems thrilled and nervous, all at the same time.- |
| Veja: But I have a big problem, a very big one, yes. |
| Veja: I need to get a carkarass stinger, or poisonous barb. |
| Veja: Of course you can only get them from the poisonous variety. |
| Veja: But don't go killing one, now. |
| Veja: You'd probably ruin it. |
| -Veja thinks a bit.- |
| Veja: Yes! |
| Veja: Yes… |
| Veja: Ask Liera, right? |
| Veja: She will know about them for sure. |
| → Go to Liera Zireti |
| YOU: Tell me about Carkarass stingers. |
| Liera: Well, the carkarass stinger ain't something easy to come by. |
| Liera: It's also…controlled. |
| Liera: And I mean, if they catch you without a permit, you can be sent to jail. |
| Liera: I know poison carkarass stingers are used in potent venoms. |
| Liera: I don't think any of them are used to kill, but you know, even an overdose of water could, eh? |
| -Liera gives YOU a playful wink.- |
| Liera: Anyways, who needs it? |
| YOU: Veja Pontor asked me to get one. |
| Liera: Now I really wonder why would she use such a thing in her trade. |
| Liera: But, it's her job, and who am I to inquire? |
| Liera: Sadly, I don't have one here, I'm out of stock. |
| Liera: But I know for sure Vladovic in Ojaveda will have some. |
| Liera: You will need a permit from the guard lieutenant to carry such a thing, so you'd better go see Jefecra first. |
| → Go to Jefecra Harcrit |
| YOU: I need a special permit. |
| Jefecra: What for? |
| Jefecra: And who told you to get one? |
| YOU: Liera Zireti needs me to get a Carkarass stinger from Vladovic in Ojaveda. |
| Jefecra: I'll send a guard to ask her just to make sure you're not lying. |
| Jefecra: I'll give you the permit now, but if we find out you weren't honest, you'll be severely punished. |
| Jefecra: Animal venom is strictly regulated, just so you know. |
| -Jefecra finds a parchment, takes a quick look at it and signs it. Then he hands it to you.- |
| Jefecra: Show this permit to Pinayet Ullavin once you have what you're looking for. |
| → Go to Vladovic Chel-Astra |
| YOU: I'm looking for a Carkarass stinger. |
| Vladovic: Why on Yliakum would you need such a thing? |
| Vladovic: Well, never mind, I hope you really know what you're doing. |
| -Vladovic puts on a pair of thick gloves and starts rummaging through a sack, taking a small stinger and slipping it into a small leather pouch.- |
| Vladovic: Here you go. |
| Vladovic: Careful, it's still poisonous. |
| Vladovic: I have a lot more, so this one will be for free. |
| → Go to Pinayet Ullavin |
| YOU: Please, read this. |
| Pinayet: What is this? |
| -Pinayet starts reading and nods.- |
| Pinayet: Alright, I see. |
| Pinayet: Seems to be in order. |
| Pinayet: Dangerous stuff, I do hope you are careful with this. |
| -Pinayet signs the permit.- |
| Pinayet: Present it to Jefecra promptly. |
| → Go to Jefecra Harcrit |
| YOU: The permit, signed by Pinayet. |
| Jefecra: Very good. |
| Jefecra: You may now go to Liera and give her what she needs. |
| → Go to Liera Zireti |
| YOU: I have the stinger here. |
| Liera: Well, that's good, but it was Veja who wanted it. |
| Liera: Oh, now that you're here, please tell her to be careful with it. |
| Liera: I'm not sure I have an antidote for it. |
| → Go to Veja Pontor |
| YOU: The Carkarass stinger, as you asked. |
| -Veja snatches the pouch quickly and starts working on a shield spike carefully, her expert hands attaching the poisonous barb to it.- |
| Veja: Yes, excellent… |
| Veja: You've done very well! |
| Veja: Look, I wrote a copy of this book for myself, but since you've helped me so much, you can have it. |
| Veja: Of course it doesn't ask you to use Carkarass parts. |
| -Veja winks at you and snickers, passing you a book.- |
| Veja: Enjoy it! |
